The historic site of the old Joliet Prison is just begging to be explored. That is just what you will do if you join us on this trip. We will get a 90-minute indoor and outdoor guided tour of the old prison. This tour talks about the general history of the site from when it was first opened in 1858 till its closure in 2002. This historic tour is a great introduction to the prison and its history while you explore the West Cell House, North Segregation, Cafeteria and other buildings as available. You will have worked up quite an appetite after the tour and where better to fill up than the traditional family-style Buca di Beppo! We will have bread, salad, spaghetti, fettucine alfredo, chicken parmigiana and desert. Tea, coffee and soda are included. The prison will have some seating available but the terrain is rough and uneven. Extensive and uneven walking is involved with this trip. Registration/cancellation deadline: April 15 (spaces permitting). Transportation provided via Park District van.
Registration for this program/event begins at 9:00am on12/4 for residents and 12/11 for non-residents.
Our trips are perfect for those 21 years and older to get out and explore!
